Anushka is infact underrated...if she was conventionally pretty she would have had an easier path coz the girl can act! I really suggest that you watch NH10...it had a relatively unknown director n no others stars, made on a small budget n had a A certificate... and still anushka n the movie shined.

The first movie of Anushka I've watched and absolutely loved was Band Baaja Baaraat. In fact, BBB was coming on TV recently and I appreciate Anushka's performance even more this time around - there were so many subtleties, esp in the first half, in her performance. Truly an outstanding performance, probably her best one.

After Jab Tak Hai Jaan, in which I thought she was good as the supporting actress, I haven't really liked any of her other performances. I have not watched NH10 or Bombay Velvet fully - just in parts - so can't comment on her performances there. She was decent in PK but it was an Aamir show through-and-through. In DDD she shone in some scenes with Ranveer (their chemistry is still very much there), but her role was too short to judge, it felt like a special appearance or a cameo at best. In Sultan, I thought she was good but nothing extraordinary, it didn't help that the movie was all about Salman. She did work well on her Haryanvi though.

I did watch the ADHM trailer but I am not really getting any feels yet, I'll wait for the full movie to judge. I thought BBB would be a boring and flop movie but turned out the opposite. I also thought she was quite adorable in Patiala House when most people didn't like her in there... so hoping she surprises me in ADHM. Also would like to see Phillauri.

I have not seen NH10, so I can't comment on that. Commenting basis the movies I have seen. She was sorely disappointing in Bombay velvet and also DDD. I am not saying she is a bad actress but yes she still has a long way to go before she is on par with Kangana or a Deepika.

I don't get the hate for Deepika here. As an actress she has evolved tremendously. I hated her earlier movies because of her acting but then she just changed. cocktail she was Veronica. in chennai express her comedy was pitch perfect and far superior to Sharukhs hamming comedy. In Ram Leela she managed to convey the fiery and passion of a woman in love without being ott( which in a sob movie is the requirement). In finding fanny she was sublime. In Piku, she was Piku and she was Naina in YJHD. In Tamasha she was the soul of the movie. Her only disappointing act was in BM, which partly was also the directors fault. She has managed to convey a variety of characters very well. So yeah presently I feel both Kangana and Deepika are better actors than Anushka


you made the topic that Anushka is overrated but u haven't seen her best movie in recent times... so it's kind of a redundant topic. anushka has shown quite a range in past 2 years but if u haven't seen half of the movies then what can we say... PK, Nh10, BV, DDD, Sultan and now ADHM. I think kangana might be a better actress than both deepika n anushka but she has alot of bad movies too, so she isn't that consistent. Deepika is a very good actress but IMO she has become overrated... I didn't like ram leela, finding fanny, tamasha was a horrible film, and in BM she got completely over shadowed by priyanka despite having the title role. But I've loved her in many of her other films.

^Deepika is still kid of Mechanical in my view.. She was sleeping in Bajaro Mastani. She took time to improve and his hyped up to be fab when she really isn't. On the other had Anuahka has been effortless since her first movie.

She was good in NH10 and BBB but nothing exceptional,in most of her movie she was just sidekick,anyone could have done those roles.

Anushka is a good actress not overrated definitely but she severely lacks screen presence that's why always gets overshadowed by her co actors..Even in ADHM teaser she got overshadowed by Ash..But I really liked her in the trailer because her competition was partially good partially bad Ranbir and a horrible dialog wali Ash...In terms of acting she really emotes well. Was awesome in RNBJ, BBB and NH10. But you seldom take her ur home after you leave theater..thats where she lacks

I have not seen her NH10, but yes I have seen DDD. She was strictly average in DDD. Her consistency has been when she has to perform an extension of Anushka Sharma. The moment she has to play against types she falls flat. That's what I pointed out. Deepika or a Kangana for that matter convey their character through the body language, whole demeanour thus the acting becomes more powerful and stays even after the movie. Anushka is best when she plays a variation of herself

LOL can DDD even be called her movie? She was barely there for like 15 minutes or less.

I think she's a pretty good actress and can go a long way!

Nopes, she is the most underrated, just because she lacks the X factor thing that Dpad,Kat,Alu and many others have.

He is ugly and pretty average from all standards. Doesn’t look like a Bollywood hero material at all. I’m pretty sure he will flop within 2...
